Jaska for Mayor

After being in Houston for just over a year it has occured to me that we have three summers here. The first summer starts during spring - the weather gets very hot very quickly. The second summer is during the summer. It is hot and humid, even at night it feels like midday. But the best summer of all, is third summer. It feels like what the end of spring feels like in normal climates. We have just embarked upon third summer and the weather today smells like every color in the spectrum.

So I am laying claim on this summer. This will be my summer, and the vacillation that defined the prior summer will be resolved. It is almost as if a new year is beginning. May it be delicious like apples and honey!
